An even bigger problem for me is that when we do get a cross in there's no one on the end of it. The way Parkinson has set the team up and his constant chopping and changing seems to have had the effect that too many of our players can't 'read' each other and don't know what's going to happen next or where the ball is going to be.

As I've said before I also believe confidence is in the gutter and both those situations have to be blamed on the manager. Whether we like it or not, whether or not it cuts into revenue I believe it's now vital that we make a change so a new manager will have time to assess and properly use the players we already have plus decide who he wants from the admittedly limited pool of outsiders we can afford. I hate to say it but if Parkinson is still here at Christmas I believe we're certain to be relegated. He has to go and now.

What manager in his right mind would come to us at this moment. At best somebody from a lower league or currently unemployed. We have so-called good manager from a lower league right now. Unemployed blokes have been fired for being useless at their own clubs. As I always say I would go for a foreign manager maybe from Italian/Spanish lower half teams. But without any cash to pay him...….I'm stumped. A new manager bump is the best we can hope for I suppose no matter who it is.

Parkinson left Bradford for a chance at a bigger club with a bigger wage bill to play with, so I would think the majority in Divs 3 and 4 would be interested.Parky just isn't able to overachieve very much with his wage bill and we need one who can.

I read somewhere that in Parkinson's time in the championship with Bolton, Charlton and Hull he has had 129 games and won just 22 that in itself is appalling, how he thinks he can turn our situation around is beyond me.

Sounds good on paper....but upon closer inspection you are suggesting that a manager from the 4th division which is not much higher than the local pub team is the man for the job at the mighty whites. We can't get a bloke from the lower divisions because most on here would be saying that he is out of his depth after three games. We can't afford to take any Champs managers from their clubs....therefore we are left with unemployed ex-champ or may ex-prem managers at best. I'd look for an up and coming bloke from the Spanish second division....how do you do that....no idea....that's Ken's job.

Our impending bankruptcy probably rules out a managerial change unless Anderson does the decent thing and reduces his ridiculous demands, so until the ownership issue is resolved one way or the other, we’all have to make do.
